Is it legal to carry a firearm into a school zone in West Virginia?

Yes, with a permit
No
Yes, if unloaded and locked away
Yes, for educational purposes with authorization

The correct answer is: No

In West Virginia, carrying a firearm into a school zone is restricted to maintain safety in educational environments. The law prohibits individuals from bringing firearms into schools, establishing a clear boundary intended to protect students and staff. While there are certain exceptions and conditions defined in the law for some activities, the general rule is that firearms are not allowed in these sensitive areas. The other options discuss scenarios involving permits, conditions like being unloaded and locked away, or authorization for educational purposes. However, none of those align with the overarching legal framework aimed at ensuring school safety.
